A moment later the pain vanished and the world looked very clear to him. The feelings he was experiencing now were ethereal and he couldn't put them to words. Aldrich looked around and didn't notice anything different about him. At last Aldrich released himself from the slightly magical feeling and returned to business.

"It is possible. But there are other possible scenarios. We must not assume anything at this point in time. But this doesn't fit the characteristics of our enemy." "It doesn't? How so?" "Our enemy is cautious and cunning, how could they kidnap the daughter of the only Crestmaster in Wakefield a year before their attack? That would have alerted the Crestmaster that something wasn't right." "Now that I think about it that is true." "If I were the enemy I would have disposed of her on the very day of the…

"Did I now? my imagination isn't as wild as yours." Sneered Ayemon. "Suit yourself. You must've already told him about the test. Don't bother denying. I know you did." Hissed Falcc. "Just give me the badge, Falcc. I don't need to prove anything to you." Demanded Ayemon. Falcc unwillingly produced a badge from his pocket and gave it to Ayemon. Ayemon and Aldrich walked out of the room and turned many hallways, thankfully there were many signs with pointed arrows that helped navigate directions. Ayemon…

Aldrich looked at the nice building, still awed by the white and blue colors, the design was also especially impressive even in Voryhrm. He stopped by the gate and found the head guard, the black haired dwarf and a human patrolling the area. "Oh, you came." The dwarf greeted him with some surprise. "Sure, I came. I said I was coming to sign the contract today didn't I?" "I know you did. But there are many people that say that in the way of polite refusal, if you know what I mean." "People actually do…

He returned to the real world with a total of eighteen essence orbs, a large amount in the past, not anymore. That is with the assumption that each attribute needed sixteen orbs to advanced further. He had to use two orbs to return to the real world and to bring that coin pouch took six orbs. Aldrich even felt that the potential of essence orbs was not so easy to measure, the possible uses for essence orbs could surpass his imagination. The next morning Aldrich finished his morning routine and went…

"What can I help you with friend?" The guard asked politely. "I'm here about that apartment? It wasn't taken right?" "Oh, that one, yes, yes, it's still available of course. Let me show you." "Sounds good to me." "By the way are you a student of the Crest academy?" "Yes, I am." "That's great. The owner is very supportive of students like yourself he even gives special discounts."

The sharp pain cleared his head in time for him to roll away from the stab aimed at his throat. The sword missed and he kicked with his leg at the boots of the husk, bringing the husk crashing down. A move that he was getting a bit too familiar with. His sword was too far away, he couldn't allow the husk to regain its composure. Aldrich crawled over the husk, straddle it and used the sharp edge of his shield to strike at the husk's head repeatedly until it's brain spilled out of its head. Aldrich cleaned…

But to his relief and contradicting his fears, the room was empty of any creature. The candle was burning on a small round table at the western edge of the room. Aldrich descended the short stone stairs, there were only six steps. The design of the room in such a way made it much bigger than expected. The east wall of the room was filled with chains tied over iron pegs imbedded in the wall. Aldrich couldn't see properly so he walked over to the round table and took the candle with him intending to use…

"Ah, I mean to say how close were you with her back in Wakefield?" "Why do you have to know that..." "As I said, the situation is dire. Your answer will help me decide on how to deal with her." "How to deal with her? What are you even talking about?" "Calm down, hear me out.." "I'm calm. You just started saying some random things." "Listen to me, you may not like to hear this but I will still say it. There's a possibility that Adera is an agent that works for whoever was behind the attack on…
